Re: book for Snort

[Jun Wan <junwei_wan () hotmail com>]

Hi Joel and Others,

 

I will use a book to get a overall picture of Snort, then focus on the most updated user manuals and readme-s for 
"nitty-gritty" stuff.

 

Many thanks again.

 

Regards

 

John

Jun,


They are the same book. I am not sure of the length difference. 


However, much has changed with Snort since the writing of that book. While you are  free to get the book for the basic 
concepts, the Snort manuals and readme-s are much more accurate and up to date.

Hi Joel,
 
I am going to buy a book to learn Snort, I have found the following two books with the same ISBN( 9781597490993) and 
same book name (Snort Intrusion Detection And Prevention Toolkit):

Would you please answer the following questions:
 
1.) are these two books the most current Snort books?
2.) What's the difference between these two books.
 
Any information and help would be much appreciated.
 
Many thanks in advance.
 
Regards
 
John
